Ingredients

The best thing about it is that a single scoop of the product delivers 26 grams of protein, 3 grams of creatine monohydrate and 3 grams of carbohydrates, with totally zero sugar, cholesterol and fat (1).

It’s also free from the so called “cheap and unnecessary” fillers like collagen and gelatin (which you might find helpful if you suffer from bad joints or ligament health) which naturally occur in beef, but are also promoted as “hydrolyzed protein” by other manufacturers.

With this protein powder, you can be sure that you spend your money only for the protein itself.

MuscleTech Platinum Beef Protein comes with two main packages – 2lbs and 4lbs, and two great tasting flavors – Double Dutch Chocolate and Vanilla Caramel.

And although you need up to a month of loading in order to really feel the effects of creatine, you only need a single dose of Platinum Beef Protein to experience recovery, like never before.

The calculation is pretty simple, yet effective:

pure beef protein + creatine = fast recovery = muscle and strength

Who’d need more?

Side Effects

There’s no essential reason not to take MuscleTech Platinum Beef Protein, except maybe of its price, because there are no known side effects to the supplement as long as you take the recommended dosage.

However, if you have any intolerances to animal proteins, you might consider a vegan or a vegetarian supplement like a soy or pea based protein powder or a meal replacement shake.

If you’re following a Paleo style of living, there are other beef protein powders that would probably be a better fit for your lifestyle.

How to take MuscleTech Beef Protein

Like most protein supplements, MuscleTech Platinum Beef Protein is best suited for your pre or post workout shake.

Why?

Because when you train fasted, your glycogen levels drop down and your body uses the amino acids, stored in your muscles as energy.

That’s ok if you’re looking to lose weight. But when your goal is mass gaining, that’s the last thing you want to happen.

The same applies to post workouts. A scoop of MuscleTech Platinum Beef Protein will ensure a proper environment for better recovery and fast amino acid delivery for further growth.

A post workout shake dramatically increases protein synthesis, which is something you should not overlook (3).

People with busy schedules and those who travel a lot would also benefit from using this product, as it mixes up pretty quickly and you know, it’s a lot easier to drink a shake or two than eating a steak.

And a lot more convenient, too.
